About smoothing the rough edges...

Hello Friends,

We often meet people in our life where we struggle to understand their demeanor, yet there is something about them, heart and soul, that connects us to them.  It could be, in the process of building the relationship, what we really want to do, is smooth out their rough edges.  We embrace all they share with us, but at the same time, struggle with how they are delivering their messages.

What I have come to know and understand with absolute certainty, is we must unconditionally accept each other with just the way we are.  That's not to say that we don't influence each other's styles, because that would not be realistic; rather in the process of living our lives, we discover the greatest value is found in treasuring the person, and meeting them right where they are. At times, that very thing has the power to smooth out the rough edges.  Until next time...
